No: Their initial instinct was to tell you could really use it, and pay for what you use. Then their instinct was to still tell you that you could really use it, and pay for what you use over a certain amount. See above for an explanation why neither of these first two approaches that cable has tried to employ are working out.

Blame rests squarely on the shoulders of heavy users who use the media to impose their perspective above yours (assuming you're not one of "them" ).

Paying more for more usage, if they were left in peace to do so, would not be "punishment". That's simply fairly pricing services based on value provided.
